"Dream - Entertainment tax hikes ranging from 40 percent to 75 percent have garnered criticism from various circles, especially entrepreneurs. Moreover, many celebrities with millions of followers have ventured into this business. One of those celebrities is lawyer and entrepreneur Hotman Paris Hutapea, who deems the increase in entertainment tax figures unreasonable. Hotman is not staying silent about this new policy. He visited the office of Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment, Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan, who requested the postponement of the policy."
The translation of "Dinilai Tak Masuk Akal" to English is "Considered Unreasonable".
"We met Minister of Home Affairs yesterday, today we met Coordinating Minister Luhut, both agreed that the figure of 40 percent is unbelievable," said Hotman at the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Investment Coordinating Office, Jakarta, on Friday, January 27, 2024."
The translated text while preserving HTML tags: "The entertainment tax itself falls into the category of certain goods and services tax (PBJT) regulated in Law Number 1 of 2022 concerning the Financial Relations between the Central Government and Regional Governments (UU HKPD)."
The translation of the provided 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any HTML tags is as follows: "The increase in entertainment taxes is only allocated for bars, nightclubs, discos, steam baths, and karaoke, which are raised by 40 to 75 percent."
"While for cinemas, fashion shows, beauty contests, and music concerts, there has been a decrease in rates to 10 percent, after previously being charged at 35 percent."
With this increase, entertainment taxes in Indonesia are higher than in Southeast Asian countries (ASEAN). This condition is also compared by Hotman Paris.
